Interesting buildings

Good idea for a thread. I have a few gems locally. The house in the pictures below was designed by F. R. S. Yorke and Marcel Breuer in 1937.
There is also a great place designed by Patrick Gwynne in 1970 for Ken Monk, I can't find any decent images online though but shall take a walk down there and try to take some.
Also included a link to some other modern houses in West Sussex, might interest some of you.

Nick the Yorke/Breuer building looks absolutely beautiful, do you have any larger images of it?
I love the fact that there are some incredible pieces of design by some of the big guns of architecture in the most unexpected places, keep them coming.
This is a wonderfully angular office block a few miles away designed by Richard Siefert of Centre Point fame.

Thanks so much
for a great thread, H.moon, and a good idea. Hope we'll see some gems.
And thanks for the excellent photos of Ham Common -- they seem to show that this property is being maintained as it ought. I discovered this project with delight when it appeared in a Rizzoli publication of 1978, "Architectural Monographs 3: James Gowan. According to the text, Gowan was in partnership with James Stirling only between 1956 and 1963 -- so it is possible that Gowan can be credited alone for this work.
In any event, it is great to see it in color. Here are four pages or partial pages on the project:

Thanks for the images SDR.
The estate is now under the protection of English Heritage as a site of architectural importance. It has a grade 2 listing which means that no external alterations can be made and the original colour schemes should be used.
Too often you see developments like this completely fractured by someone putting a victorian style front door or ugly plastic windows onto their property.
I have always thought English Heritage to be a stuffy, pompous anti modernist establishment but they do get it right occasionally.
The estate pictured which is just up the road from the Stirling/Gowan development designed by Eric Lyons in 1953 has also been granted this preservation order.

Breuer Baltimore
In keeping with Marcel Breuer, here is the seldom seen Hooper House I of Baltimore. Hooper House II was featured in Dwell a couple of years ago.

Some more pics of the Breuer...
Some more pics of the Breuer house, since been renovated you will be pleased to know. The garage was a later edition as I have a really old book with an original picture - Most of the surrounding houses were built in the 1940s onwards.
Also found a small image of the Gwynne house and an article below. I'll try to pop down later this week and get some images of these two, plus another brilliant house along the beach.

GDR
I'm living not to far away from the former embassy quarter of east berlin. it's quite a run down place as you se on the pictures - but not without charme. Eckard Schmidt, one of the most important architects in the GDR built them around 1965. the countries that still have their embassies here, are the poorest one: eritrea, bosnia, cuba, etc.
